These are just alright. I like that they are a shorter alternative to the long trunks out there. The backside on them is a bit dumpy though. I've got a sizable backshelf, but you wouldn't know it in these

32 w, 6'1 175#, got a medium and they're a little big but that's what the drawstring is for. I like that they're a little baggy without being frumpy. I love that the inner lining isn't that white mesh crap, but it does take a bit longer to dry for that reason.

I love these shorts. I got them in Navy. They were pictured with a black drawstring and came with a white one, which was okay. I wish they still came in the color oatmeal (which was tan). I think I might get another pair. Also the liner keeps everything tucked in and is comfortable unlike mesh linings

I'm a 33 waist (160 lbs) and the medium fit great! I'm pretty pale too, and the maroon looks good. At first I got some looks of shock when going out on my college campus, but just be confident and know that these look better than any board shorts. Stylin'.

Pretty good. A little baggy for my preference though. I mean in order to be short they have to be tight as well though, no? Because you don't want people do see your junk.
I'm on the slimmer shorter side. 5'6", 120lbs. I'm fit more like the african american guy in the photos and the length is great. A good buy.

Great shorts.
Nevertheless, unlike most of the comments I have read, I do not recommend buying a smaller size. I am 1,70 meters and skinny (not heroin skinny, but in shape). I bought a size Small and it's a bit too tight. I never got the oportunity to try a Medium, 'though.

size small fit me perfectly at 5'9" 163lbs. outside nylon dries very quickly. however the lining will stay wet for a bit. may not be for the beach due to sand in the liner and waves trying to take them off. tie them up folks.

I ordered "Dark Berry" in "XS" (waist size 27) and it fits perfect! I didn't require to modify the white string to make it tighter or anything. The lining is very conferable and does it's job well. Holds my "goods" in place, safe and securely. The color is great, very unique. Highly recommend.

I have skinny legs and bought an xs, still way too big. They are just frumpy looking and the way it looks from the side is just awkward. I wore them one time to the beach and just do not like them whatsoever. All around terrible.
